Domain reseller

The Internet is an ever-growing community that generates new options to gain money on the Internet. One of them is to become a domain name reseller and sell domain names to end users, gaining revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail price of each domain name. Thousands of domain names are registered each and every day, and there are 1 000 000's of currently active domains, so this is a flowering trading niche that you can become engaged in.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains Names

A domain name is composed of 2 pieces - a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). If we take domain.com, for instance, ".com" is the top-level domain name and "domain" is the Second-Level Domain.

Generic and Country-Code Top-Level Domains

The top-level domain names can be generic or country code. The generic top-level domain names comprise the most widespread domain name extensions like .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, while the country-code TLDs are made of two-character abbreviations that symbolize each country. Instances of country-code TLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each TLD, whether it is a generic Top-Level Domain or a ccTLD, has a Registry - an organization that handles the registrations and sets the preconditions that each particular TLD may contain, among them the length of the registration period or the citizenship of the registrant. Certain Registrar companies operate under the Registry. These are the companies that in fact sell the domain name to clients and handle all DNS records.

Earn Cash From Trading Domain Names

Many Registrars have reseller programs that permit people to gain revenue from selling domain names to end clients. If you sign up for such a program, you can build your very own e-business. Usually, a domain will be more inexpensive if it is registered through a reseller rather than if it is bought straight from the Registrar by an end client. The cause is that resellers can contact more customers in provinces or countries where the Registrar may not be known whatsoever. This means more sales for the Registrar, so both sides will cash in on that. Your revenue will be the difference between the price that the client pays and the one that the Registrar requires for the domain registration.

Resell Top-Level Domains Under Your Very Own Brand

When you register with a domain reseller program, you will acquire a website hosting CP where you can settle the prices for the various TLDs that the Registrar offers. Most corporations also provide invoice transaction software and skins for your web store, and the automation of the whole procedure combined with the significant demand for domain names render the domain reseller business niche so alluring. You will either acquire a ready-for-use website and avail of the Registrar system to sell domains, or they will give you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can make your very own personal online portal and order form. Commonly, you have the option to choose between the two alternatives, so it all revolves around how skilled you are in these issues. As a domain name reseller, you will work under your very own brand name and not under the Registrar's brand.

Make Profit From Supplying Web Page Hosting Plans As Well

A perfect supplement to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting services too. In this way, you can give a package deal to users who wish to set up their website and need both a domain and a hosting plan. Given firms supply such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for instance, you can have a Virtual Dedicated Server or a dedicated server, and they will also give you a domain reseller account and cost-free invoicing transaction software to bill your clients. You can then sell domains and shared hosting packages to customers, and since they provide plenty of diverse domain name extensions, you will be able to offer domain and hosting services to users from all over the globe.
